    Well done to flykids for good exams and trophies!
    And, naughty flycats!

    I'm just back from paid stuff, and everyone is off site tomorrow so I'm going to work from home again :T do love my office now that ruddy trampoline is gone!

    Not flown as such but I did list some old garden toys we've grown out of on fr33gle so they have been collected today = more space in my shed :T

    Not sussed what we will have for tea tonight yet - depends what they've had at club. Unless I just go shove some fish in the oven, might do that, actually. I'm hungry already!

    I have done well in my challenge thus far but I'm going to fall of the midweek wagon with a BUMP tonight! My hooves are killing me, I have walked miles and miles today. Good news is car is ready for collection, bad news is I still have to, (a) get on the bus to go get it and (2) pay for it :eek:

    I will declutter the bedroom before we leave!

    Ach. Annoyed. Collected kiddies and DD medicine bottle missing again. I have to tell them every week about this, it's very wearing. I never know if I need to up her dose on an evening if I can't see what she's had during the day.
    Even more irritating was the surly staff member who asked me if she'd brought it back from school with her. How the hell would I know? If I picked her up, she wouldn't be at school club, would she? :mad: thankfully the rest of the staff are lovely - but right now wishing I didn't have to work and use wraparound care :(

    So. Do I email my complaint or wait till morning and do face to face? Or do I forget about it given there is only a month or so to go, then they will all be in the new building anyway?

    Pfft.

    Bossy, I would make them aware that the bottle was missing, as the medicine is important to your DD's well being.

    Bossy I would complain, it is wraparound 'care' and part of that care is her medicine.

    Doing HH flying and then dinner for me. I feel an early night coming on as I have double paid stuff tomorrow.
